And now, the moment, with Brian Koppelman. moment don't you waste it on regret.

Hey, there's the moment.

I'm Brian Koppelman.

Thanks for listening.

There are two kinds of people.

Those who have a favorite band and those who don't.

I do.

And that band is the hold steady.

If you know them, you know why I love them. If you don't, stop listening

to me and fire up their songs sequestered in Memphis, then come back. Did you do it? I mean you really should do it. I swear it's a great

great track. It might be the best track of the 2000s. I wrote that on Grantland.

I wrote that I thought it was the best of the 2000s and a bunch you agreed with me

Craig Finn and Tad Kubler the lead singer and lead guitars to the band are on their way here

Like Keith and Mick Eddie and David Lee Roth, Peter Buck and Michael Stipe, these guys

need each other to do what they do, and I'm not sure they like that fact at all. A few years back, David Levine and I used a hold steady song, Lord I'm

discouraged, in a crucial moment in one of our movies, Solitary Man. And the combination of Craig's

words and Tad's soaring, searing guitar solo really make the scene work.

From the first moment I heard the hold steady, I wanted to talk to him him to ask him about how they do what they do and why

In a few minutes. I'm going to get the chance

Hang in and check it out

All right Craig, Tad,

welcome. Thanks for being here.
